CALL FOR SHORT PAPERS, DEMONSTRATIONS AND POSTERS
The Third International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications and Services (IIWAS2001)
September 10-12, 2001, Linz, Austria
organized by Software Competence Center Hagenberg - Austria
in collaboration with Johannes Kepler University of Linz - Austria and National University of Singapore - Singapore
The Internet and the World Wide Web are revolutionizing every aspect of our life at work, at home, and at school. At the core of this revolution is the ability to effectively and efficiently share and exchange information virtually with anyone anytime anywhere. Yet, it is very hard to keep up to date with the ever-increasing sophistication of the tools and techniques available at the dawn of the 21st century for building the future information society. Industrial, commercial, educational, and information society institutions and organizations whose activities rely more and more on information technology cannot afford to ignore the latest technological and infrastructural development and trends of the Internet. Business to consumer, business to business, and business to government transactions, business intelligence, decision support at every level of the enterprise are conducted competitively only when they tap into the information resources offered by the World Wide Web and when they leverage the latest tools and techniques available. IIWAS2001 aims to provide a forum for gathering, discussion, and exchange of ideas and information by researchers, students, and Web-related business people on the issues and challenges brought on by Internet technology for the intelligent integration of information. The conference technical sessions will be organized around four major themes: information integration systems, web engineering, E-commerce and M-commerce, and intelligent information retrieval. The technical sessions will include presentations of refereed research and position papers and invited talks by leading experts, tutorials, panel discussions, and product exhibits. Topics of Interest The conference solicits full-length research or position papers on relevant subjects for the aim and themes of the conference. The following is a suggested, not necessarily exhaustive, list of topics of interest and relevance to the conference.
